Algerian Parliament Reviews Key "Burning File"

Algeria is preparing to present a bill to amend the Penal Code to the Parliament, aimed at activating the death penalty in cases related to wildfires that claimed the lives of dozens of people last summer. The amendment includes expanding the scope of the penalty to cover perpetrators of intentional wildfires, regardless of whether there were fatalities, and implementing the punishments effectively after a halt since 1993. This move responds to President Abdelmadjid Tebboune's desire to toughen penalties, amid protests and concerns about the enforcement of the death penalty on those detained in arson cases. International human rights organizations have also condemned this step, warning of a regression in human rights and calling to resist the expansion of executions.
